Back Yard Retreat in Littleton




This has been one of my Favorite projects. When I arrived on site in September of 2003 there was 8000 Square Feet of Dead Lawn.
The Objectives:
Reduce water Requirements
Make it Low Maintenance
Create a Path to the Shed and back
Several Seating Areas
Hide the Neighbors.
On a project of this size having one garden that covers 8000 Square feet will be very interesting, So I created 6 Focal Points / Gardens.
  1. Perennial Garden
  2. Fire Pit Patio
  3. Rose Garden
  4. Wild Flower Prairie Garden
  5. Romance Area
  6. And Grand Kids Lawn
I make it back every other year and just love spending time in this yard.

Clean Plan in Littleton




On this Project the Client was an Weenier by Trade, so the plants are spaced very precisely and the wall height and grade of the yard were studied at great length.

Reduced Sod in Lakewood











For this Project we reduced that amount of water needed by Planting Xeric plants and reducing the amount of sod while keeping the HOA happy and still fitting in with the neighborhood.
